but I was more taken with the colourful fishing houses along its canals.
Its my most favourite place in Veneto to get snap happy and look
just see how devoid of tourists these smaller canals are!
We were so happy to be able to revisit here in July 2004 with better light conditions.
- Pros:prettiest island on the lagoon
- Cons:restaurants close early in the evening
- In a nutshell:island of lace and colourful fishing houses

Burano is really a gem - I can see that from your photos - Mary
San, fantastic colourful photos of this lovely part of Venice. Unfortunately I didn't make it to Burano. :o)
I love the colorful houses, Sandy. This have even me wanting to go back to Venice. Steve's right, you should have squeezed in a pizza too. Sounds like you were starving yourself there. ;)
Wow, you ate here a lot and you didn't even go to our favourite place from the whole of the lagoon - the simple rustic pizzeria at the top of the main street (opposite one of those posh places that you mentioned).
Another nice page -- fantastic colorful photos!
Wow, now that's impressive colour! Makes ordinary houses look terribly dull. :) Well done!
I LOVED Burano. You have some beautiful photos.....
Thanks for the tips! Seems like I absolutely have to include this small island in my Venice trip this month! Greetz
a lovely page and great pics ! Burano is such a peaceful island, without the hectic of Venice...
What a colourful island. Very beautiful
